"A big, fruity red with crushed-berry, strawberry, chocolate and black-forest cake character. It’s full-bodied, layered and rich. A little old-style, but delicious all the same. Drink or hold."

Vineyard Info

Hacienda Terra Duro, is a result of a project of two good friends who look for high quality wines. Our vineyards are over 140 years old linked to respect to the terroir, traditional and sustainable methods of wine production of wines with character. We are focused on meticulous care of land and our vines. All of them have been treated with eco-friendly treatments. With our vines and our Management team, we have reached really nice and fine wines which have been awarded by Robert Parker at the “The Wine Advocate” and Peñin a “Guia Peñin” with high scores.

This wine is produced with Tinta de Toro grapes from our estate One, located in Venialbo. A clayey limestone soil over unbroken bedrock within one meter down the surface and an altitude of about 800 meters which gives La Enfermera its special features.
